Glen Johnson would be interested in a move to Roma but has had no contact with the Serie A outfit, according to his agent.

The Liverpool defender is out of contract this summer and told the ECHO last week that he had held talks with a number of foreign clubs about a possible summer move.

Speaking to Roma Press, agent Jonathan Barnett said: “There hasn’t been any (contact with Roma) at the moment.

“He’s obviously looking for things at the moment. He’s looking at many clubs.

“Glen is obviously looking for somewhere where he can turn around his career. That’s the most important thing for him.

“Where he can play nicely under a good club that’s challenging for things. That is where he wants to be.

“At the moment there isn’t a time frame.

“We’ve had no contact with Roma, although Roma would be a lovely place for him – Ashley Cole absolutely adores it there, I represent him as well.

“Ashley thinks very highly of Rome but we’ve had no contact with Roma regarding Glen.”

Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers said back in January that he wanted Johnson to stay at Anfield but the situation is complicated by his status as one of the club’s highest earners and his dwindling role.

Johnson earns around £120,000 per week and he rejected the Reds’ offer of a short extension on reduced terms towards the end of last season.

Over the course of the current campaign it has become increasingly clear that the former Chelsea full-back’s Reds career is coming to an end.

Johnson, who cost Liverpool £18million from Portsmouth in 2009, has scored nine goals in 193 appearances for the club. He has been hampered by injuries this term and since regaining fitness he has found himself down the pecking order.
